Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing super metallurgical-grade silicon, relating and pertaining to a method for preparing high purity silicon, in particular to a method for preparing the super metallurgical-grade silicon with purity more than 99.99 percent with metallurgical-grade silicon. The invention is characterized in that: block metallurgical-grade silicon is put into an ultrasonic and microwave field for metallurgical acid leaching after being cleaned, crumbled, ball mill, sieved and preliminary impurity removed, then wet leaching at atmospheric pressure and high-temperature and high-pressure leaching are carried out upon combination to the strengthening treated metallurgical-grade silicon powder so as to leave the metal impurity in the metallurgical-grade silicon powder into the leaching solution as soon as possible, therefore, the leaching solution can be used again upon extraction and the extractant can also be used again after reverse-extraction. The invention jointly uses strengthening technologies in special fields of microwave metallurgy, ultrasonic metallurgy, high-temperature and high-pressure leaching, etc., therefore, the purity of the silicon prepared by the method is 99.99 percent or more, so as to meet the requirements for super metallurgical-grade silicon by solar cell industry. Besides, the invention has the advantages of low investment in equipment, low energy consumption, slight influence on the environment and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing high-purity silicon, in particular to a method for preparing ultra-metallurgical-grade silicon with a purity greater than 99.99 percent from metallurgical-grade silicon. Background technique [0002] As we all know, traditional fossil energy can no longer meet the rapidly growing energy demand of mankind. The solar photovoltaic industry meets the requirements of the sustainable development strategy, and has maintained a high-speed development with an annual growth rate of more than 30% in the past ten years. The solar photovoltaic industry relies on polysilicon for solar cells. [0003] At present, solar cell materials mainly come from waste and defective products of the semiconductor industry. Traditional trichlorosilane (SiHCl 3 ) The polysilicon for solar cells directly produced by the hydrogen reduction method, that is, the Siemens method, has large investment, high production cost, poor safety per...
